My name is Kate Liebl, and I made this booklet as a piece of my Girl Scout Gold Award. I created it because I felt there was not enough representation and resources for children to learn about disabilities. I chose to focus on physical disabilities because I had the most experience with them. I have had an invisible disability for the past three years, which is a disability that people don't see at first glance. With this project, I set out to inform about different types of disabilities and how they can affect people differently.
Other talented individuals who made this project possible include Aimee Issac, Logan Kollar, Patti Daniel, Janet Maher, Jessica Velasquez-Schlegel, Jennifer Noonan, Adria Windish, and Vincent Mirdita.
